The First Tee of Northwest Arkansas

Description

The First Tee of Northwest Arkansas offers programming to youth, ages 7 to 17, in Bella Vista, Bentonville, Rogers, Springdale, and Fayetteville. We utilize park sites (and the "almostgolf" ball) in each of the communities, Bella Vista's Tanyard Creek and Fayetteville's Stonebridge Meadows driving ranges, and pffer participants the opportunity to experience the game at the Lindsey and Bella Vista golf courses. Over 500 youth participated in our 2008 programming. In 2009, we hope to expand our programming to offer over 44 hours of instruction and 14 hours of practice opportunities each week. Our programming offers our participants with low cost golf instruction, while seamlessly introducing them to our Life Skills education program.
